Pyroelectric phase consists of barium strontium titanate particles with particle size of about 150 nm and soft magnetic phase consists of cobalt zinc ferrite nanoparticles with particle size of about 30 nm. Two phases were prepared with sol-gel method and under appropriate stoichiometry. XRD analyses indicated formation of pure phase for each magnetic phases and FESEM analysis indicate the structural properties of Cobalt-Zinc ferrite and Barium Strontium Titanate nanoparticles. Investigation of permittivity, permeability and reflection loss of samples indicated the response of electromagnetic waves to these samples in the frequency range of 1-18 GHz. According to the reflection loss of composites, there are two mechanisms for the absorption of electromagnetic waves. In the first region of this frequency band, magnetic loss from Cobalt-Zinc ferrite nanoparticles is dominate and in the last region of this frequency band, dielectric loss from barium strontium titanate is dominate.

But polymers themselves have some restrictions such as inability in osteoconduction and integration with surrounding tissue, induce foreign body reactions, reducing of pH by degradation products which can results in unwanted inflammatory reactions in related place, and weak mechanical properties in compare to metallic types. In order to alleviate these problems using of polymeric composites including bioactive particles is taken into consideration. In the present work 45S5 bioactive glass and hydroxyl apatite (HA) ceramic particles were used for fabrication of poly(L-Lactic acid) (PLLA) composite screws. Microstructure and thermal properties of produced samples were evaluated by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and particle size analysis (PSA). Also for evaluation of osteogenic activity of produced samples, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Alizarin Red Staining assays were carried out and cytotoxicity was conducted through MTT assay. In compare to PLLA screws, PLLA/HA and PLLA/45S5 composites showed more and less thermal stability respectively. The results of cell analysis assays showed no cytotoxicity and both composites revealed proper osteogenesis potentials. Manuscript profile -

X ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show that the spinel phase was formed at around 350°C. Formation of spinel phase was further completed by increasing temperature up to 1000°C. Additionally, XRD patterns prove that MnCo2O4 spinel material has been stable in this temperature range. Field emission scanning electron microscope observations show that plate like particles with an average diameter of 148 and thickness of 18 nm was converted to equiaxed particles with an average particle size of 1.5 µm by increasing calcination temperature from 350 to 1000°C. Investigation of the coating of uncalcined and calcined powder on AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel shows that a proper dense coating is developed on the stainless steel surface by using uncalcined precursor powders. And also, this coating performs well by prohibiting of outward diffusion of Fe from the substrate. In this way, a low thickness chromia layer (Cr2O3) is formed between the coating and the substrate. EDX analysis shows that a mixed spinel zone is formed in the interface of the coating and the substrate due to diffusion of some elements such as Mn, Cr, and Fe from substrate to the coating, as well as Mn and Co from coating to the substrate.

The results showed that Myrtus acts as a good inhibitor and the inhibition efficiency of this compound increases with increasing inhibitor concentration and in the presence of 1000 mg/L of the inhibitor will increase to 82%. Polarization curves showed that Myrtus extract acts as an efficient mixed type inhibitor. EIS plots indicated that the polarization resistance increased and double-layer capacitance decreased upon the addition of Myrtus to the solution. The adsorption of Myrtus on the steel surface was found to obey Temkin adsorption isotherm and the values of free adsorption energy indicate the spontaneous and chemical adsorption of inhibitors on mild steel surface. Also, quantum chemical calculations were used to correlate the adsorption of two compounds of Myrtus extract with its electronic structural parameters. Manuscript profile -

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermal analysis(TG/DSC) were used for coating analysis of the copper oxalate on ammonium perchlorate and behavior changes of thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate in the presence of nano copper oxide made of nano copper oxalate respectively. The results of catalytic thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate shown that the cover of copper oxalate nanoparticles has a good effect on the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate and the thermal decomposition temperature of ammonium perchlorate reduced from 422 ºC to 299 ºC. In addition, the thermal decomposition peaks of ammonium perchlorate (compared to thermal decomposition of pure ammonium perchlorate) were integrated. In order to evaluation of the effect of nano-catalyst on the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters one of the model-free methods as Ozawa - Flynn - Wall (OFW) equation was used. As result, it was observed that nano-catalyst reduced the activation energy, the frequency factor and thermodynamic parameters in different conversion rates 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8, respectively.

In this research, the corrosion behavior of cast Mg-5Zn-1Y containing different amounts of calcium (0, 0.1, 0.5 and 1 weight percentage) was investigated. The microstructure of the alloys was analyzed using optical and scanning electron microscopes, and the corresponding phases were detected by X-ray diffraction. Corrosion behavior of cast alloys was measured using electrochemical polarization and immersion tests. Metallography analysis revealed that microstructure of the Mg-5Zn-1Y alloy includes α-Mg matrix and Mg3YZn6 lamellar phase formed at the grain boundary. The addition of calcium to the alloy refined the grains and resulted in the formation of continuous Ca2Mg6Zn3 at grain boundaries. No passive zone was detected in polarization curves, meaning domination of active polarization, indicating increased corrosion rate due to grain refinement which can be attributed to calcium addition in the alloy. The polarization and immersion tests results confirmed that the alloy Mg-5Zn-1Y-0.1Ca has the lowest corrosion rates among the investigated alloys, and the more the calcium content, the higher the corrosion rate due to the formation of cathodic Ca2Mg6Zn3 phase.
